Jabez was at a barbecue with his family on Labor Day weekend of 2017. His family said he wasn't having a good time, so he walked from their home in the 15000 block of 23rd street in New Town, Sarasota.
The person that put Jabez at the murder was someone names Reginald Parker. Parker told three people that he witnessed the fatal shooting of Travis by 3 Newtown thugs, who he knew and named two of them. His firsthand account was corroborated by another witness, a woman who also heard the gunshot and saw 2 men running from the area.Later, Parker changed his story stating that he never saw Jabez there.
Parker is a registered sex offender who failed to report moving. He also was charged for Travis' murder with accessory after the fact.
Jabez phone last pinged near an industrial park in a heavily wooded area.
On February 16th, 2019, Jabez skeletal remains were found in a rural part of Manatee County, west of I5. They were found by someone working on a fence. Sarasota Police Department Deputy Chief, Pat Robinson, said, "It's unknown how long those skeletal remains were at the location where they were located, or if they were transported there from somewhere else."
Both Jabez and Travis' cases remain unsolved.
